Wolf Tooth Race Face Cinch Direct Mount Chainring

4.6

Best premium upgrade for mountain bikers seeking reliable chain retention.

This direct-mount upgrade turns a finicky drivetrain into a reliable workhorse by locking the chain in place, even through the roughest rock gardens. You sacrifice the ability to swap rings on the fly, but you gain the peace of mind that comes with near-perfect chain retention and superior mud shedding.
